Sensor Strength


Sensor Scan Results are added to the number of ships you can see after a Long Range Scan. Each scan costs (1) Processing Power. The Sensor Scan Results attribute affect the results for NPC Drones, Player Drones, and Player Ships scan sweeps. For example, if you had 4 Total Sensor Scan Results on your ship, you would see 4 NPC Drones, 4 Player Drones, and 4 Player Ships per scan. Each ship has a different base Sensor Scan Results, including Rep Ships.

More Sensor Scan Results can be shown by installing mods with the Sensor Scan Results attribute through equipping of Utility and Sensor mods. Additionally, guilds can increase Sensor Scan Results if your guild has spent points on it.

There is a maximum display cap of 10 of each type (NPC Drones, Player Drones, and Player Ships).
